Adaptive’s Top 5 Picks from Bett 2017!

Fast becoming a yearly tradition, the Sales Team at Adaptive IT spent a day at the Excel Arena, visiting the annual Bett Show. Bett is the world’s leading education technology event celebrated in the UK, featuring market leading manufacturers showcasing their latest offerings to the visiting industry delegates. Attended by 34,500 educators, it is the perfect opportunity to discover the market’s newest technological releases.

We have compiled a list of our top 5 most exciting and innovative products on show!

ClassVR – Avantis

Virtual Reality made its debut at Bett 2017 from a number of different manufacturers; in our opinion the most impressive of which was the ClassVR from Avantis. Bringing affordable VR to the classroom, ClassVR comes complete with hardware, software and curriculum-linked activities and lesson plans, equipping teachers with everything they need to introduce this cutting-edge technology straight into the classroom. What’s more, you don’t even need an additional mobile device to make it work!

Biometrics and new MAT software – InVentry

InVentry took the opportunity to showcase multiple new features of their leading Visitor Management solution, including enhanced functionality within Multi Academy Trusts. This means Trust employees can now travel across multiple sites using the same ID, and Trust wide reporting now allows for the generation of personnel reports across all Trust sites.
Biometrics adds to the already feature-rich system, with the introduction of fingerprint scanners for staff, removing the need to carry lanyards and labels, using a more permanent form of identification.

Clevertouch Interactive Touchscreens – Sahara PLC

Clevertouch has maintained its status as the market leader for interactive touchscreens, and used this year’s Bett Show as a platform to showcase its newly released features. The all new Lynx5 software (which existing users can upgrade to for free), and the revampled Cleverstore, featuring hundreds of educational apps were both exhibited on the award-winning Clevertouch Plus and Clevertouch V-Series.

Classbook – Avantis

Avantis’ Classbook is a new concept in school computing. With full functionality of the Windows environment and flexibility of the cloud, Classbook offers schools and affordable and scalable solution to laptop and desktop replacement. Classbook has the added benefits of revolutionary inbuilt wireless charging, taking away the pain of flat batteries, broken ports and tangled wires.
